    Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods, apparatuses, non-transitory computer readable media, and systems for performing synergistic sensing an attribute of an environment of a facility. Sensing may be performed by sensors of a facility from which a first sensor measures a first attribute at its first sampling rate. Due to a correlation of the first sensor and a second sensor that measures a second attribute at a second sampling rate slower than the first sampling rate, the second attribute can be determined and/or predicted at least in part by using measurements of the first attribute by the first sensor.

    Abstract: A tintable window is described having a tintable coating, e.g., an electrochromic device coating, for regulating light transmitted through the window. In some embodiments, the window has a transparent display in the window's viewable region. Transparent displays may be substantially transparent when not in use, or when the window is viewed in a direction facing away from the transparent display. Windows may have sensors for receiving user commands and/or for monitoring environmental conditions. Transparent displays can display graphical user interfaces to, e.g., control window functions. Windows, as described herein, offer an alternative display to conventional projectors, TVs, and monitors. Windows may also be configured to receive, transmit, or block wireless communications from passing through the window. A window control system may share computational resources between controllers (e.g., at different windows). In some cases, the computational resources of the window control system are utilized by other building systems and devices.

    Abstract: Techniques for transceiving radio frequency (RF) signals through a window of a building are disclosed, the window having a first surface facing an interior of the building. An antenna arrangement is attached to a building structure adjacent the first surface and the antenna arrangement includes one or more radiating elements configured to transceive the RF signals through the window. In some embodiments, the building structure is mullion. In some embodiments a window surface includes an electrochromic and/or low emissivity coating that is excluded from a region proximate to the radiating elements.

    Abstract: Resources of a system for controlling optically switchable windows may be used for a personal computing unit. The window system resources may include (i) a display associated with an optically switchable window, (ii) one or more processors of one or more controllers on a window network connected to a plurality of optically switchable windows in a building, wherein the one or more controllers are configured to vary tint states of the plurality of optically switchable windows in the building, (iii) memory of one or more controllers on the window network connected to the plurality of optically switchable windows in the building, and/or (iv) at least a part of the window network.

    Abstract: A building services network, which may include a network of sensor devices, is securable via an onboarding process. In addition to the use of encryption keys stored in memory elements of the devices, an onboarding process may additionally utilize a distributed ledger, which is stored among members of a peer group to provide consensus-based authentication of newly added sensors. Such consensus-based authentication of an onboarding process may preclude insertion of falsified data into the building services network. Consensus- based authentication may also be utilized to ensure that newly requested services, and/or upgrades to existing services, comply with predetermined service contracts among network elements of the building services network. Further, consensus-based authentication may also be utilized to authenticate and/or validate individual message transmissions between or among network elements of a building services network or between or among network elements and processing/data collection entities external to the building services network.

    Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems, apparatuses, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media related to a display construct (1, 2, 3) coupled to a structure (e.g., a vision window (123)). The structure can be a supportive structure such as a fixture. The display construct (1, 2, 3) is configured to facilitate media display and is at least partially transparent. The vision window (123) may be a tintable window, e.g., a window in which its tint is electrically controllable (e.g., an electrochromic window). Various interactive capabilities with the display construct (1, 2, 3) are disclosed (e.g., via a touch screen).

    Abstract: A tintable window is described having a tintable coating, e.g., an electrochromic device coating, for regulating or blocking light transmitted through the window. In some embodiments, the window can receive, transmit and/or regulate wireless communication that uses electromagnetic waves as a communication medium. In some cases, a window can receive or transmit infrared, visible, or ultraviolet wireless light fidelity (LiFi) signals. A window can be configured, in some cases selectively configured, for blocking radiation and/or signals generated by LiFi, radio frequency (RF), laser or other devices from passing through the window. Windows configured for blocking signals may be configured as a communication firewall between an interior environment and an exterior environment, or vice-versa. Networks of tintable windows can communicate via LiFi and provide a communications network through which other devices, such as personal computing devices, can be connected to the internet or a remote network.
